Three years ago, when I was moving to NYC, I offhandedly made a comment to a stranger who was buying a blender from me through Facebook about also selling my first and only car, and that person not only ended up buying my car, but we both got a better deal, they loved the car for all the same reasons I did, and we now still follow each other on social media.
I write all this to say that sometimes a long shot ask pays off and everyone wins, so here I am!
My husband, two cats, and I are looking for a 2 bedroom apartment uptown, to move anytime between July and September. Maybe you love your place and know you're going to have to move, and having a new tenant lined up would ease your departure (emotionally or logistically). Maybe your neighbor is moving and you want to make sure your new one is cool and respectful (I think we're cool??). Maybe you love kitties and like the idea of living next to two (they are friendly friendly). Or, I don't know, maybe you just know of something and want to help us out! Anything is possible!
What we're looking for:
- 2 bedroom/1+ bath
- Yorkville is our ideal (I'm a huge sucker for the ferry), but we're completely open to UES, UWS, Manhattanville, and South Harlem
- Ideally under $4k/month, but open to up to $4.2k for the right place
- Must allow cats because we're in deep with our two (they're uninterested in renting a place on their own)
- Laundry in building
- Big big big bonus if a bedroom fits a king bed, since that's what we already have (iykyk)
About us:
- Mid-late 30s, both work in different aspects of education in Manhattan
- High credit scores (800+ and 700+)
- We have often made friends with building neighbors in the past, but we also know that the most important things are to be respectful and kind. We are always happy to help with cat care for other pet owners in our buildings/neighborhood!
Again, I know what a long shot this is, but if you have any thoughts, leads, or questions, please let me know!
